California Passes Illegal Immigrant Handout – Only They Are Eligible for Special Housing Loans

California, once a land of opportunity, has now become a breeding ground for far-left, socialist policies. They have defied common sense and put American citizens last. The Golden State’s descent into madness is accelerating, driven by radical Democrats who seem hell-bent on turning the state into a utopia for illegal immigrants at the expense of hard-working Americans.

Americans are fleeing California in droves, driven away by the state’s increasingly radical policies. As the Biden/Harris economy hurts working Americans, the high costs in CA are making things worse. Its government is more concerned with catering to illegal immigrants than supporting its own residents. The exodus is a stark indicator that California’s extreme shift to the left. And now, it looks like even more Americans will pack up—after Democrats gave illegals a major gift.

From Daily Wire:
Democrats in California passed a bill on Wednesday that allows illegal immigrants to be eligible for a housing program where they could receive an interest-free loan worth up to $150,000 for a home purchase…

According to the legislation, no one applying for the loan can be “disqualified solely based on the applicant’s immigration status.” The state has already spent more than half a billion on the program for nearly 4,000 loans.

The latest example of California’s insanity? The legislature just passed a bill that allows illegal immigrants to receive interest-free loans of up to $150,000 to buy a home. Yes, you read that right—while millions of American citizens and legal immigrants struggle to afford a home in one of the nation’s most expensive housing markets, California’s Democrats are opening the floodgates to give away taxpayer money to those who have broken the law to be here.

This bill, passed with overwhelming support from Democrats in both the Assembly and the Senate, is nothing short of an outrage. It’s a slap in the face to every American who plays by the rules, works hard, and dreams of owning a home. Instead of addressing the state’s skyrocketing housing costs or fixing its crumbling infrastructure, California’s lawmakers have decided that pandering to illegal immigrants is a higher priority.

The bill’s passage was nothing less than a disgrace. It passed 53-18 in the state Assembly and 25-14 in the Senate, without a single Republican vote in favor. And now, it’s headed straight to Governor Gavin Newsom’s desk, where it’s expected to be signed into law. Because why wouldn’t Newsom, the poster child for progressive extremism, sign a bill that furthers his radical agenda?

The legislation, introduced by Democrat Assemblymember Joaquin Arambula, explicitly states that no one applying for these loans can be disqualified “solely based on the applicant’s immigration status.” That’s right—California is now openly incentivizing illegal immigration by offering interest-free loans to those who are here unlawfully.

Republicans in the state, the last bastion of sanity in a sea of leftist lunacy, are understandably outraged. Assemblymember Bill Essayli rightly called out the absurdity of this bill, saying, “It’s a slap in the face to legal immigrants when we incentivize the breaking of our laws and the normalizing of being in this country unlawfully.” He’s absolutely right. This bill doesn’t just insult American citizens—it also disrespects the millions of legal immigrants who followed the rules to come here.

Meanwhile, the San Diego border sector has become a hotspot for illegal crossings, with thousands of illegal immigrants being released by the Biden-Harris administration. And now, thanks to California’s new law, these same individuals might soon be getting interest-free loans to buy homes in a state that is already buckling under the weight of its own policies.

California’s descent into far-left chaos is a warning to the rest of the country. This is what happens when socialism takes root—lawlessness is rewarded, and the American dream is sold out to the highest bidder. The Golden State is rapidly losing its shine, and it’s only going to get worse from here.

Key Takeaways:

  • California’s far-left policies are driving residents away due to high taxes and prioritizing illegal immigrants over citizens.
  • A new bill allowing illegal immigrants to receive interest-free home loans has sparked outrage.
  • The state’s shift towards socialism is prompting residents to flee to states with more balanced governance.
